Hitting meetups is a really good idea, but can I say that orangethirty said get out now, today, before lunch.
Hitting meetups - well it might be a good excuse to wait. You know, that meetup tonight is not so big, I will do Thursdays. Plus Thursdays, well the venue does its own catering and won't let me in till ....
Get outside the nearest two pre made sandwich places - and success is selling twenty lunch packs to people who otherwise would have bought a sandwich - this lunchtime.
Get out if the office and get out now.
Good luck :-).
